Hi Scorpio,

Let me see if I understand you correctly.  Are you saying, for selecting 
continuous files;

1. Highlight the first file & press the left moust button 1 time, then  hold 
down the shift key.

2. While keeping the shift key depressed, arrow down to the last file you 
would like selected, do a single left mouse clickk on the last file, & by 
doing single left mouse clicks on the first & last file in the list, all 
files between the first and the last will be highlighted / selected.

Yes, these are personally created files and not system files.  I would like 
to thank you for your patience & understanding.  Hell, if I had known this 
mouse Bulls**t was this much of a pain, I could have hired a tutor for 30 
minutes & been done with this crap 2 days ago!  hahaha hahaha hahaha

In all seriousness, I have learned a great deal from the replies this thread 
generated & truly thank everyone that got involved.  I'm also sure other 
list members learned crap they will never use as well!  hahaha hahaha hahaha

Thanks again, take care.
Mike

SelectingContinuous&Non-ContinuousFilesUsingA Mouse


  Hi Mike,

  This one was a bit perplexing when I thought about it and thinking back to
  my sighted days, in order to select contiguous files, one would single 
click
  on the first file in the list of files, hold down the shift key, then 
click
  on the list file in the list one wants to include in the list of files.
  This will, in turn, select all the files between those two files.
  Additionally, should one wish to select further files to include in the
  list, one simply need hold down the control key, and continue selecting 
the
  files in the noncontiguous format until all files are selected.

  I should mention that I am assuming that the files being selected are user
  created files like MP3 or word processing documents and not system files.
  I'm sure I don't have to tell you that the process for selecting system
  files are far more different than selecting user created files as system
  files are normally hidden, and so will not show up in a regular window, 
and
  so folder options must be changed in order to reflect the showing of those
  files.

  Either way, the continuous and non-contiguous format of selecting files 
are
  as I have outlined above.

  Hope this helps you in some way.

  Scorpio
